10.5KW shower 10mm stud wall query?

Discuss 10.5KW shower 10mm stud wall query? in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

Does the existing consumer units have RCD protection with a spare way for the new circuit as it would be required anyway due to the circuit in bathroom and cables I presume within 50mm of the wall surface or metal stud work? Remember that with a standard 10.5kw resistive load shower you will not get overcurrent do your calculations based upon a B50 MCB.
